Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Mixture
- ½ medium avocado
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Everything but the Bagel seasoning
Toppings
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional for topping)
Base
- 2 slices sourdough bread or your favorite bread
Instructions
- Mash the avocado mixture: In a small bowl, mash the half avocado until smooth. Add lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and Everything but the Bagel seasoning, then mix well to combine all flavors evenly.
- Toast the bread: Toast two slices of sourdough bread (or your preferred bread) until golden and crispy to provide a sturdy base for the toppings.
- Assemble the toast: Spread the avocado mixture evenly over each slice of toasted bread, ensuring a creamy and flavorful base layer for the toast.
- Add cottage cheese topping: Spoon and evenly spread half a cup of creamy cottage cheese over the avocado layer on each toast slice.
- Finish with optional drizzle and seasoning: Drizzle honey, hot honey, or balsamic glaze over the cottage cheese for a hint of sweetness. Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of Everything Bagel seasoning for added zest and crunch.
Notes
- Mash the avocado first separately for a creamy texture and to avoid squishing the bread.
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best fresh and bright flavor.
- Ensure the avocado is ripe for creamy consistency and ideal taste.
